Issue 21 – In Conversation with .. 10!

The album cover, with you clutching a cracked
papier-mâché replica of your own face, seems
to be a direct portrayal of your identity.
Can you elaborate on the symbolism behind
this image and how it reflects the album's
themes?
Ya I think i've explained this above, but I'll
sum it up by saying in my forever exploration
of identity throughout my work, this was the
most violent. I'd never felt possessed by an
idea or a feeling like this. I think the cracking
mask was a great representation of the
violence and pain. I'm trying to breakthough
to something.
In what ways do you hope listeners will
connect with "Girl With No Face," and what
do you want them to take away from this
bold and reflective musical journey?
I hope that I will get the privilege of being
truly seen and heard by some.
Are there any artists you're keeping your
eye on at the moment? For collaborations,
inspiration, or otherwise?
Not really. Starting to look for a co-producer
for the next album.
What else can we look forward to from
you this year?
Maybe tour, maybe remix, maybe other
stuff….
"Girl With No Face” is out now:
